More about Satoko

  • 28 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

Over the 27 years, I have acquired keen assessment skills and clinical interventions to assist patients with multiple issues, ranging from childhood, adulthood, abuse, trauma, mood disorders, and anxiety. I have experience in outpatient, residential, inpatient psychiatric hospital, while providing individual, couples and family therapies. I have served my clients using mainly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) from systemic perspective. I personally believe in CBT (and other tools, including ACT: Acceptance Commitment Therapy). When these tools are fully embraced, it is truly an eye-opening, life-changing experience.
